... a hurricane (let's call it Hermine) ripped through the Florida panhandle and SE Georgia just before election day?  Both areas are decidely Republican, and a low voter turnout in those parts could tip the state-wide vote to the Democrats. Would the voters in those counties get a do-over a couple of weeks later, or could the state legislatures simply appoint the Republican slate to the Electoral College?

I don't know if hurricanes could even occur in November (Superstorm Sandy, anyone?) but it would be interesting to see what could happen in that scenario.

No hurricane needed to tip the election in FL to Clinton. It's already Lean D.
